Answer:

Average total cost per unit = $100

Explanation:

The average total cost is the the total cost divided y the number of units

Average cost = (Total variable cost + Total fixed cost)/ Number of units

Total variable cost = (20× 400)=  8000

Total fixed cost = 6,000

Average total  cost = ( 8000 + 6000)/140 = $100

Average total cost per unit = $100
